Title: NETWORKING: CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 LX570)

Open in One Side of CAN Branch Line

DESCRIPTION

If 2 or more ECUs and/or sensors do not appear on the Techstream "CAN Bus Check" screen, one side of the CAN branch wire may be open (One side of the CANH [branch wire]/CANL [branch wire] of the ECU and/or sensor is open).

Symptom

Trouble Area

2 or more ECUs and/or sensors do not appear on the Techstream "CAN Bus Check" screen.

  • One side of CAN branch wire is open
  • Display and navigation module display*1
  • Multi-display*2
  • Center airbag sensor assembly
  • Air conditioning amplifier assembly
  • Main body ECU (cowl side junction block LH)
  • AFS ECU (headlight swivel ECU assembly)
  • Network gateway ECU

*1: w/ Navigation System

*2: w/o Navigation System

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

  • Perform the following inspection for the ECUs (sensors) which are not displayed on the Techstream. If a malfunction cannot be identified, perform the following inspections for the ECUs (sensors) connected to the CAN communication system.

  • Do not remove the center airbag sensor and ECM, as they are the end parts of the circuit. If removed, CAN communication will not be possible.
  • The open circuit confirmation of the center airbag sensor, ECM and main wire is performed in the Check CAN Bus Line procedure of How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. This inspection only has procedures for checking for an open circuit on one side of the CAN branch wire.

PROCEDURE

1.

DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal before measuring the resistances of the main wire and the branch wire.

CAUTION:

Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

2.

CHECK FOR OPEN IN ONE SIDE OF BRANCH WIRE (DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY OR MULTI-DISPLAY)

(a) Disconnect the F28 display and navigation module display*1 or multi-display*2 connector.

*1: w/ Navigation System

*2: w/o Navigation System

(b) Select "CAN Bus Check" on the Techstream NETWORKING: CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM: DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM (2008 LX570) .
